This book is about the involvement of young people in criminality and the subsequent response of the authorities to their activities. It is designed as an accessible textbook for students taking courses in youth justice or training for work in the youth justice system. The book is divided into three parts. The first section traces the development of young people from their social construction as children and adolescents; considers attempts to educate, discipline, control, and construct them in the interests of a myriad different interest groups; and examines their deviance, 'offending behavior, ' and the consequential societal response. The second section considers the various explanations or criminological theories and the relevant empirical evidence to support these explanations on why it is that young people offend. The final section examines the origins, foundations, implementation, and parameters of the contemporary youth justice system.
